The ecclesiastical world seems to be in a condition of singular commotion in these days. England has been disturbed by discus sions over England and Father Ignatius and the Pan-Anglican Synod, and America has had almost every branch of its religious de nomint\tions more or less convulsed with dis putes over all imaginable points of doctrine and discipline. Some of these bodies are struggling toward union, while some are tugging with all their might at the knots which lWld them together. Ritualism in the Episcopal, lay-representation in the Meth odist, reunion in the Presbyterian, and we know not what in other denominations are all so many elements that are breeding storms in the ecclesiastical skies. The latest of these phenomena is that - which has just ap peared in the Synod of the Reformed Presby terian Church now sitting at Pittsburgh, where a prominent member of that denomi nation, Mr. George H. Stuart, of this city, has been suspended for committing two grievous offences against the order and dis cipline of his church. Mr. Stuart has been guilty, first, of singing hymns in metre, in stead of Rouse's Psalms; and, second of com muning with other denominations ! After two days spent in most inharmonious discus sion, law and order have triumphed over pro gressive liberalism, and Mr. Stuart is excOm municated. This action of the Synod was probably in strict accordance with its own laws. The usages by which Mr. Stuart has indulged his natural fraternal feeling toward Christian people of other denominations are forbidden ones, and in connecting himself with the Reformed Presbyterians, he accepted their order of discipline. The law of psalm-sing ing or of "close communion," like the tenure of-ollice law, is binding until it is repealed or declared unconstitutional, and the Synod holds it to be a "high crime and misde meanor" for any one of its members to take its laws into his own hands. That such laws can exist ;,,.. this age and 1 country may fairly be wondered at. That I the intense conservatism of John Knox could ever have been transplanted from the bleak ' and bare Scotch hills to th 6 'bread and genial soil of American liberalism seems almost in credible. That any Church can hold its own in these days, shut up from all association with its neighbors, and deprived of all those elements of popularity, such as the use of the music and hymnology of this age is one of the remarkable things of the day. Most of the religious denominations have some form or another of exclusiveness, but f there is a eculiar incongruity with Ameri can mann and modern liberality in this case. If t e Reformed Presbyterian Church likes to conduct its worship in its present fashion, and is strong enough to maintain itself 'under it, it haiirperfect right to do so, but the probability is that Mr. Stuart's rebel lion,—for rebellion it surely is,—will produce a reform, and eventually bring this very re spectable branch of the American Church into a close degree of harmony with those who - ,vould be glad to fraternize with it, if they • re only allowed to do so. , .. '.7e reject the idea of the Chicago lii,pilli- Man that Mr. Stuart has been suspended be cause"he could not sing and yet would sing." Mr. Stuart can sing "lustily, and with a good courage." The ./16pubtican ignorantly sug ge&s that "probably he sang through his nose; sang without time or tune; growled three notes behind, straight through all the solos. Perhaps he is the original party who knew only two tunes, one being 'Corona tion,' and the other not that, and persisted in foisting. his his repertoire upon all • singing occasions." There are plenty.of people in all our churches who might well be sus pended indefinitely for these causes: dreadful people, reckless and tuneless people, cracked of voice, oblivious of time, regardless of their neighbo . i7s, abhorred by the choir, dreaded by the minister, scourges to music -committees, nuisances, pests, abomitions. But Mr. Stuart is not one of these, so far as we have ever heard, and there will be no good done in the cause of sacred music by cutting oil his pleasant hymn-tunes and sending the people back to those ancient and unmelodious dirges which have neither part nor lot among the live people of the nineteenth century. SECRETARY OF THE SENATE After more than eight years of service, first as Clerk of the House, and since as Secretary of the Senate,Mr. Forney has tendered his re signation. Quito an animated contest has sprung up over the vacancy,and a number of excellent names have been presented to fill the vacancy. Among these, ex-Senator Cresswell of Maryland is mentioned, and the Senate could not do better than to select that gen tleman for this responsible position. lle is emi nently fitted for it by his native qualifications and his experience in the Senate Chamber. Representing the loyal element of Maryland, he was, of course, overthrown when the rebel power was restored to that State, and it would be tograceful acknowiledgment of long continued and most valuable service in the cause of freedom, should the Senate pay him the substantial compliment of making. him its Secretary. The Republican Senators appear to, have been prevented yesterday from coming to any definite conclusion on the question of Mr. Foroey'S successor by the intrusion of Messrs. Trumbull, Ross, P.9wier, Van Winkle and Henderson into their eanetts. The Reptitilf-' can Senators,very properly ciosed their meet rg on the appearance of the intruders, and Mused to recognize rlgiA to CA in it r private council. This was as it should be.. If these men are so dull or so self-opinionated , as not to understand the relation which they now occupy toward the Republican party, a few practical lessons of this sort may be of service to them. FOOLEI !LIMINESS. If a man were to propose to cut his throat, commit hari- kccri or butt Itis brains out against a wall, and invite a paying crowd to witness the performance, it would be con sidered a proper subject for the interference of the police, and however much persons of morbid tastes and appetites might, desire to gaze upon the spectacle, law and decency would be apt to interfere. Yet there are public exhibitions that are scarcely less suici dal in their probable consequences than .out and-out felo- de-se, and while 'they attract applauding thousands, the law and its minis ters make no effort to check the barbarous show. Of such panderings to the vulgar taste for the horrible are the exhibitions of lion-tamers and tiger-conquerors ; such acro batic feats as sent dashing to the ground the quivering body of little Japan ese "All-Right ;" and the rope walkings of Blondin, with the seething MPids of Niagara, two hundred feet beneath him.. On a quite recent oc casion an English "Sam Patch," who styled himself the "Star Diver" of the conntry,made a dive of about one hundred feet in an English river, in the presence of thousands of specta tors. The dive was an entire success inas much as the diver failed to come up again until, he was brought up by a second diver, and it was then found that the man was dead and he would never again have an opportunity of slaughtering himself to make an English holiday. We are now promised an American exhibition which for reckless folly will ex ceed any of the mad feats that have preceded it. A Detroit man designs precipitating hip self over the Falls of Niagara Mr the edilltra tion of. as many persons, as are willing to contribute, towards remunerating him for his risk and trouble. He is to be enclosed in a sort of India-rubber shell which to be set adrift in the rapids above the cata ract and if he is not smothered in his envel ope, or dashed to pieces in his descent to the ' bottom of the Fall, he is to stand his chance of being fished out from among the rapids and rocks below and towed ashore. That one such fool should ue found is no matter of surprise, particularly where pelf into follow, fooling; but the strangest part of the busi ness is the fact that purses can be made up to encourage such crazy exhibitions, and that men who would , dislike to be considered , abettors of suicide should lend the encourage ment of their presence, and their money con ; &aims to such objects. here is something sublime in the risking of life where a corresponding benefit is to re sult from it ; the soldier who braves shot and shell upon the battle-field, the sailor who de fies death in his efforts to save his craft and the lives of those who have entrusted them selves to his protection, or the man of science who exposes his own life to the dangers of contagion and to disaster in order that his fellow-men may be the better for the sacri fice, are all sublime spectacles, and their acts , are heroic. Bat the risking of life and limb for the purposes of a display of mock heroism; or to pander to the morbid tastes of a vulgar or foolish crowd, is criminal and disgusting, and ifthe law will not reach such offenders, public opinion should make its influence effectually felt. Gladiatorial shows, bull ; fights and bear-baits are justly fleemed °II- I shoots of a barbarous condition of society. But neither the'gladiator,the bull nor the bear made a willing sacrifice of himself; he was forced into a position that had no pleasures for him. Our acrobats, lion-tamers, divers -and cataract-jump ere have no such excuse, and among the judicious and humane their acts wculd only excite contempt and ridicule it it w ere not, for the stronger feeling of horror which they prompt. 'rum 3 , ,iOMINAILION OF SCHOFIELD. The ,Senate has wisely paused over the nomination of General Schofield as Secretary of War, in consequence of a technical, but very important, difficulty. The President sent this nomination to the Senate pending the impeachment proceedings, and, of course, atter • the Senate . had declared that there was no vacancy. Should the Sen ate now act upon this nomination, Johnson and his friends will tura it to account, and quote it as a proof that the Senate revokes its resolution of February 21st. One of two courses is plainly open in this dilemma. Either the Senate should treat the nomination now before it as null and . void, aud wait until it is either withdrawn or repeatt-d iu proper time and form, or, if it is the.tielit most conducive to the public interests to fill the War Department at once, the confirmation by the Senate should be ac companied- by such a distinct declaration as will "leave no chance for the President to make personal or political capital out of it. City C,uheils yesterday did au eminently proper ihivg in refuzing - to'pass the ordinance which provided for the cutting of Twenty fourth street through the grounds of Girard College. The conditions of this great trust were that the grounds were to remain intact forever, and no mere plea of convetikence should tempt us to bre ik a contract which our fathers had solemnly made and for which the city has secured and still retains 'a large equivalent. Besides this consideration' of simple honesty and fair play, there is another which is eminently worthy of thought There are' grave doubts whether, under the terms of the Will of M. Girard, such an invasion of the grounds of the. College would not vitiate the claim of the city to control the trust, and thus vest it in the' State. There is no doubt that the College. walls, stand greatly in the way of the im provoMent of the northwestern part of the City, and the fact teaches us a lesson that should not , be lost. Mr. Girard was a far sigh!ed man and when he fixed upon "Peale Hall" as the site of the College,he anticipated , the time when the city would grow up to and encompass its walls; but he did not dream of this anticipation being realized in scarcely more than a third of a century from the pe riod of his death, or doubtless he would have secured some appropriate locution tor-the buildings at a mai, Dilater distance from THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, MAY 29, 1868. the centre_of the city. Our protons.and Pen itentiary, as well as the Blockley almshouse, already stand in the way of fife improve ment of the city; almost all our great Ceme teries are, Cr soon' will be equally is the way, and the subject is one that demands serious attention. New cemeteries, charitable in stitutions, ex., that occupy large spaces of ground must be erected farther away from, the centre, and the problem of what is to be done with our public penal and pauper establishments must be - met at no very distant day. The American Dramatic Fund deserves the generous support of all true friends of tree dramatic art and of worthy dramatic artists. It is meant to assist and relieve aged or in firm actors and actresses, and it has for years been doing good in a quiet unobtrusive way. To-morrow afternoon a performance of an extraordinary character will be given in aid of it ,in the Academy of Music, a number of the best actors of several of the theatres, and Carncross and Dixey's Ministrels, having volunteered for the. occasion. The capital comedy of London Assurance will be played with a Splendid cast; the female parts by Mrs. John Drew, Miss Lizzie Price and Miss Effie Germon; the male parts by Messrs. John Brougham, Barton Hill, Charles Walcot, Craig, Hemple, Bailey, Creese, Bradford, Jones and Osborne. It will be a treat to see such an array of artists in this elegant com edy, and for the sake of the object, we hope the Academy will be filled to overflowing. Philadelphia has always done handsomely for the Dramatic Fund, and this benefit is ex pected to add largely to its resources and means of doing good. Two bruisers, who had arranged to have a prize-fight in Dearborn county, Ohio, have been sentenced to forty days- imprisonment. This is right and wholesome, and if the term had been extended to ten times forty days, it would have been still better. All experience proves that with a brute who is capable of en gaging in a prize-fight, public opinion and re monstrance have no more effect than water has upon a duck's back. The wholesome discip line of a few months in prison would make the most ardent lover of the P. B. cautious how he repeats an experiment that is likely to result so disastrously. There is no danger of prize-fights in Dearborn county for a good while to come, and the authorities in other parts of the country might do much towards breaking up such barbarous exhibitions by the exercise of salutary sharpness in dealing with offenders. The city of New York sends an ex-prize-fighter as one of its representa tives in Congress, and we have a Ward in. Philadelphia which furnishes aldermanic re ferees for prize-fighting occasions. Bat for tunately for the credit of the country, New York city and our. own Fourth Ward are exceptions to all rules of decency. , The public, and especially the Republican party, will 'be interested in the announce ment that a carefully written Biography of lion. Schuyler Colfax will soon be pub lished by Messrs. T. B. Peterson & Brothers, of this city. The author is Rev. 0. Y. Moore, now of Denver, Colorado. He was for twelve years the fellow-townsman of Mr. Colfax, at South Bend, Indiana, and pastor of his church there.. He began this biography two or three years ago, so that it is not one of the hurried and ephemeral publications so common in election years. Mr. Moore is a gentleman of fine talent and culture and there is no doubt that his Biography of Colfax will he worthy of its distinguished subject. It will make a duodecimo volume of about six hundred pages. The ordinance creating three street cleans ing districts north of Market street and east of the Schuylkill, passed through both branches of City Councils yesterday. 'The Mayor is authorized to make contracts for the perform ance of the work of cleansing and gathering ashes. and 'garbage. The proposals are to be opened on the 10th of June. Meanwhile the northern portion of the city will be under its present encumbering coat of filth, and if the sun should chance to come out with seasonable vigor, odors will be distilled that will be seri riously prejudicial to public health. Miasma does not wait for the opening of proposals or the preparations of contractors. The streets need cleaning now. STECK dr. CO.I3,AND EAINES BROTHERS' Pianoe,and Mason 4 .

Many Republicans who have hitherto opposed any re duction of_ ils, tax now favor it, saying, that the Managers' 'investigation corroborating the whole history of the tax, shows that the Whisky Ring is too strong for the Government and must therefore be got rid of in the only possible way.

Political Intelligexice—Austrla and tun Zoilxcreln—A Nee, treaty—The East. ern Question—Tae Sultan and Fran cis Joseph ,--The , Fortifications of Luxemburg" jesrreepondenee of the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.] BERLIN, May 13tb, 1868.-Bixteen years ago Prussia was defeated by Austria 'in the field of German politics ' and the latter, among other issues of the vi ctory, exacted a treaty of com merce intended to pave the way for admission to the Z'Alverein. By this agreement, the custom" were reduced by, both parties, the benefits being confined excluiliely\to them. In 1865 this treaty expired , and then Paints, having recovered from her political defeats, entered into a still more lib erSl treaty with Prince, the protests and opposi tion of Austria to the contrary notwithstanding. Prussia had urged Austria to a like policy. Austria not only declined to take this step In the direction of free trade, but sought to induce the States of Southern Germany to repeal the beaky with France, leave the Zoliverein and aid in forming a sew Protection ists'league. These States found, however, that existence was impossible for them apart from the Zoliverein, and therefore gave their sanction to the objectionable treaty with France.'Austria then discontinued her relations with the Zell verein. Then followed a hard struggle, which, in the language of the Free Traders, 'resulted in a commercial Sadowa for the Imperial Cabinet, as decisive as the military and political rout that was to follow." Austria foiled in her , attempt to effect a commercial reunion with Germany, raised her tariff to an extraordinary height. She, however, then derived some advantage from the reduction of the Zoliverein tariff. That her policy was too extreme' even her protectionists must admit, for through the rest of Europe there was a network of international treaties, creating a wboleseme competition in all branches of man ufacture, the Austrian manufacturing princes be ing in the position to sell inferior goods at supe rior prices. This benefited the few to the detri ment of the many, for the industrial resources of the country remained comparatively undevel oped, while the government derived an exceed ingly small revenue from the customs. After a three years' trial of the extreme, Baron Beust, in the beginning of the present year, consented to a new treaty with the Zollverein, making important reductions in the tariff. Two days ago this treaty was for the first time read in the Custo ms Parliament, receiving a vote 1: ( In favor of its mitered endorsement of 246 to 17. The second and final reading will take place in a few days; and there can be little doubt that the treaty will be approved. The Zollverein, having a more liberal tariff, will have fewer concessions to make. As fir as the lowering of the Zoliverein duties is concerned, the compacts equally apply to England, Belgium, Italy and France as to Aus tria, as also does the stipulation that from the, let of January, 1869, the subjects of either country shall be at liberty to carry on trade in the other with the like privileges as its own subjects. The parties are free to dissolve the treaty by the let of January, 1877. The Customs Parlia ment recently ratified a commercial treaty which places Germany on the same footing with France in the Spanish trade. The negotiations for a commercial treaty with Switzerland have failed. It ia,reported, I know not with what truth, that Prussia made the expulsion of perman political refugees a condition in the agreement, and this Switzerland would not concede. The Turkish question again attracts attention, as, indeed, when does it not: The late changes in Austria have given the Turkish statesmen newer end stronger hopes. They understand that the regeneration of Austria means an entire change in the whole eastern question, for they have long felt that the weakness of Austria was the strength of Russia, and Russia is the night mare .continually pressing on the stomach of the sick man. Had Austria been strong, there would have been no need of seeking aid - farther west. Therefore the Turks instinctively drew near to the Austrians, as the latter, by degrees, emerge from their diflleulties. The pleasure found in this turn of affairs may not be alto gether without misgivings with the Ttirks, for the question will sometimes obtrude: Will not , the change in the Austrian system produce a change in L,,, her policy, and , will not populations which find no satisfaction for their national cravings in Turkey look towards the neighbor where all such legiti- mate claims are now allowed and satisfied There is, too, that unfortunate thing of compen sation, which was harmless enough when Austria was little stronger than Turkey. Recent events In the East suggest all these considerations, but these same considerations form so many rea sons for cultivating the friendship of Austria. This is being done. The visits of the Archdukes in the Turkish capital was seized to make such a display of friendship as assumes all the propor tions of a political event, the Sultan returning their visit, contrary to immemoriaLeastom. Part of this may be set down as the effects of the Sultan's visit to tlskWest, but not all. The Berylan Minister of Finance, who has been to Vienna, has returned to Belgrade, having been partially successful in his mission, which was to obtain from Austria some concessions in the mat ter of "capitulations." By the new agreement, in cases of police offences subjecting the criminal to less than one year's imprisonment, the Ser vian Courts are to have power over the Austrian residents, but the bastinado, still cherished in Servia, la not to be extended to Austrian sub jects. The matter of procedure In civil cases is still pending. The Dutch Government have not as yet de. 'polished the fortifications of Luxemburg, as agreed in the late international settlement. The matter, it is stated, this not even been taken in hand, with the exception of the widening of a single gate. A new paper entitled L'ilrenis, has been established at Luxemburg toprepare the public for annexation to France. Its , language is so plain that Mr. Braseer, a deputy, in a recent sitting of the Luxemburg Chamber, asked the Government if they intended to suffer that jour nal to circulate treasonable appeals, to which the Government replied, giving promise of an enforcement of the law against all pongee' agitators. THE EJOURTS. The Registry Law. SUPREME COURT, Justices Strong, Read, Agnew and Sharswood. It was understood that the constitutionality of the Registry Law would tic argued this morning. Counsel-were present and Mr. Mann called attention to the case and its im portance, and the necessity for a decision. inas much as the Board of Aldermen commenced their sessions ou Monday to carry out the objects of the law. Justice Strong said the case must take its turn on the list. Justice Read referred to the fact that tie case was before the Nisi Prins, and hence there was no necessity for a full bench. This being the case the question could be argued to-morrow. The case then Went over until to-morrow DISTRICT COVET—Judge Hare.—H. W. Gault and Wife vs. Jacob H. Gemrig.

The plethora of capital seek , ing employment Is stimulating speculation for- a ruse on the Stock Exchange, and today there was renewed activity in railway shares at advancing prices. Some of the banks! haVe made time loans to the cliques, which is reprehensible, for the latter may come to grief before they fall due, in which event prices would decline far enough to sweep away all ordinary margins on such like collaterale.

[From the New York World.l May 25.—The revolutionary change in the business of Wall etrest. to which the II ovid drew the attention of its readers a short time since, is progressing with extraor dinary rapidity. The brokers are receiving orders from their customers and from the country to buy Govern ments "at the market ; " and the ease and safety with which this business is transacted, in com parison whh the usual routine in speculative stocks, Is eulistln g brokers In favor of the change. The domestic demand today was enormous, the trans factions of one 'leading Government baker alone being ever rr.OOO,UOO. ' The orders crew Europe are increasing. owing to the confidence in United States bonds having been much strengthened by the action of the Senate in the impeachment case, and the conservative financial platform of the Republican Convention at Chicago. The unsettled condition of political affairs in Europe sue the enlargenient of the franchise in Great Britain are calculated to shake confidence iu the national debts of Eunice:in nations and to cause investors there to sell the toads of the European Gmernmente, and to boy those .01 the United States. The inducements are great to make this exchange, inasmuch as United States bonds are much cheaper than those if Europe and pay about double the rate of Interest. British consols paying thrce per cent annual interest are selling at 964,; to against the five-twentiee six per cent at 73 iu Lou. don, today. The five-twenty bonds, nineteen' years to run, compared with consols, are worth V 43 21400 in mild as au investment value.

There is a shirt interest in 18645, and ten forties, and an active borrowing demand for them,tboshortsbeing chiefly for Philadelphia account The conversions of revemthirthe to-day were $4.95 LOW, and the Government is unable to print the hoods fast enough for the demand.

XLth Congress...second Session. WASHINGTON, May 29. SENATE.-Mr. Wilson (Mass.) presented a me morial from citizens of Milledgeville, Georgia, and vicinity, protesting against the removal of the State Capitol from that city, and that the clause of the now constitution authorizing such removal be stricken out. Referred to Judiciary Committee. Also, a petition of A. G. Mackey, President of he Constitutiortal Convention of South Caro- Ina, requesting that the Legislature be allowed to meet as ,provided in the Constitution. Ile stated. that it was to meet on May 12th, but the commanding general had issued an order prohibiting the assembling of the Legislature until after Congress shall have approved of the Constitution adopted by that State. Mr. Howard (Mich.) presented a petition of members of the Bar of Michigan, praying that the Eastern District of Michigan be abolished,and that the same, with the Western District, be con stituted one district. Referred to the Committee on Judiciary. Mr. Sumner (Mass,) presented a petition of citizens of Boston, Massachusetts, setting forth the importance of the improvement of the great lakes, particularly at St. Mary's Falls,lind asking for assistance in the enlargement of St. Mary s canal. Referred to Committee on Commerce. Mr. Sherman (Ohio), from the Committee on Finance, reported amendments to tho bill to pro vide a national currency, and for the Issue of United States bonds, kn. He also stated that he had received a letter on the subject from the Con troller of the Currency, which ho would lay before the Senate and call up the bill at an early day. Mr. Chandler (Mich.) called up the bill to regu late the coasting trade of the northern, north eastern and northwestern frontiers. _ - Mr. Fessenden (;Ife.) made some remarks, Intl mating that the bill had not received, sufficient consideration from the Committee on Com merce, as had been intitriated by the Senator, and ought to be referred back to them. He thought the opinion of The Custom House officers on, the bubject should be considered in regard to the great reductions madeln the revenues. He hoped it would be recommitted to the Committee. Mr. Chandra' said the Senator could make any deductions in what ever language he choose; ho would make no objection to anything he (Fes senden) might say. The bill, he repeated, had been carefully considered by the committee for about three months, and he had brought it' to their attention nearly every meeting since the subject had been received, though. they Anti doubtless deferred somewhat to his great& familiarity with the subject, he having hedu en gaged in business in that locality for the last 30 years. The committee had adopted it unani mously. He (Chandler) understood the subject much better than did the Treasury clerk whg had . made the adverse report. He explained the course of commerce in the lakes, saying it was entirely different from ocean navigation, boats having to stop perhaps ten times a day to discharge perhaps ten barrels of freight. The custom-house otilcers of Michig,:tu approved of the bill, and they received ample compensation The reduction made by the bill was trilling, averaging not more than five per cent. Mr. Trumbull (Ill.) urged the passage of the bill. If any objectionable features appeared, amendments eduld be offered. •At this paint the bill to extend the charter of the city came over from the President with the announcement that it has become a law .by the lapse of ten days since its receipt by him. The announcement elicited smiles on the Re publican side. Mr. Pcs.sendeu replied briefly to Mr. Chandler, saving he had been told by members of the corn rurttee that they had relied entirely upon the opinion of the Chairman (Chandler), upon which standing alone,however well informed that Sena tor might be, the Senate could scarcely predicate their action. Ile sent to the Clerk to have read the opinion of the Treasury Department on the subject. The Chair—The morninv hour has expired And the unlnished business of yesterday is before the Senate. Mr. Feesenden (coldly)—Very. well, sir." HousE.—The reading ot the journal of yoga , - day having been suspended: when about one of it had been read. Mr. Morgan (Ohio) presented. the following as a question of privilege: Whereas, It has been the practice in all Par liamentary bodies, when the liberty of a citizen was involved by the Investigation or reptirt of a committee, to give each political party repre sentation on such committee; and teherepe,' in no instance heretofore has an American , citizen been deprived of liberty by the report of a strictly partisan Committee; . therefore, to vindicate the c,haracter :of the House. of Representatives of - titn. Congress of the United States from such-seemktly parti san Investigation; be . . Resolved, That the Speaker be instructed to add two members of the opposition party in the Renee to, the Committee, to investigate the facts in the case of Charles W. Woolly. The Speaker stated that if a s resolntion of the same character and providing for the same num b% of additional members had not been pre viotudy Introduced, le could regard the resole- 3:15 O'Clor:lr.. The Speaker remarked that that modification made the resolution a question of privilege it heir I different from the one that had been sla on ti,e table. Mr. Butler (Mass.) objected to the resolution. The Speaker said that as a question of privi lege it would be entertained notwithstanding ann. objection. Mr. Upson (Well.) raised the question of lts being considered at the present time. The Speaker put the question whether the House would now consider the resolution. Mr. Ingersoll desired to make a state ment or suggestion, but Mr. Upson and ether objected. Mr. Ingersoll, however, managed to Intimate that if some questionable language -- was struck out, ho and others on his side would vote for the resolution. Mr. Morgan, acting en that suggestion, with drew the preamble. The Speaker asked Mr. Upson whether he in sisted on the question of consideration. Mr. Upson said he did. The question was then taken by yeas and nays, whether the House would now consider the reso lution, as follows: Resolved, That the Speaker be instructed to add three members of the opposition party. In' this House to the Committee to investigate the facts in the case of Charles W. Woolley. The House refused to consider the resolution, the vote being, yeas 53; nays 65.
